6. Only one advanced word per sentence
7. Two-comma rule (max 2 commas, or intentionally many)
8. Remove adverbs

Quick Example:

Let’s say you want to edit this paragraph:

"The reason why this is important is because it really helps you to understand what it is that you need to do. When you're trying to learn something new, it's very important that you start to practice regularly and you should begin to implement what you learn immediately. The best time to start is now, because if you wait too long to start, you might not ever actually get around to doing it.”

After you’ve installed the Sentence Editor Skill, all you have to do feed Claude your paragraph and follow up a quick prompt.
